Colorful Seasons - LICI-B-16


Stamps: Colorful Seasons.

Cardstock: Soft Suede, Pool Party, Very Vanilla, Everyday Enchantment DSP (SAB 2012).

Ink: Calypso Coral (inside and envelope), Soft Suede.

Tools: Stamparatus, bone folder, purchased envelope, sponge, dimensionals, Tombow adhesive, snail adhesive, regular and mini glue dots, pearls, Calypso Coral organdy ribbon, Layered Leaves embossing folder.

Punches/Dies: ½” circle punch, 5/16” circle punch, ¼” hole punch, Seasonal Layers Thinlits Die.



Die cut the chair and branch in Soft Suede and the three flowers in Very Vanilla from the Seasonal Layers dies.  Sponge the flowers with Soft Suede ink.  Punch circles to adhere behind the flowers.  Add dimensionals and set all dies aside.

Cut a 5-1/4” x 4” Pool Party panel, sponge with Soft Suede ink and run through the Layered Leaves EF.  Pencil mark at 2-3/4” from the bottom of the panel on the wrong side.  Set aside.

Use a strip from your Love It Chop It DSP stash.  Sponge with Soft Suede ink and adhere to the right edge of the Pool Party panel leaving a little border.

Cut 5-1/2” of Calypso Coral ribbon and tape at the pencil marks of the Pool Party panel.

Adhere the branch and trim even with edges of panel.  Adhere to a Soft Suede card.  Add the chair and flowers.  Set aside.

Cut Calypso Coral ribbon 10”.  Make a double bow using Wayne’s wooden bow maker.  Adhere to the ribbon on the card front with mini glue dots. Trim.

Stamp a phrase for the inside and decorate an envelope.

I have loved and now chopped the entire package of my Everyday Enchantment DSP from 2012!  I chopped it in 5-1/4” strips then cut the strips into 4” pieces.  Kept the leftover strips too.  I cut the cardboard backing from the DSP to fit in the front of a Full Wide Stamp case. I checked my ribbons to see what I had that matched and taped a small piece to the cardboard.  Stored all the chopped DSP in a Full Wide Stamp case.

Rhino Animal Outing – LICI-B-09

Stamps: Animal Outing.

Cardstock: Very Vanilla, Everyday Enchantment DSP (SAB 2012), Pool Party, Lucky Lemonade, Calypso Coral, Basic Gray.

Ink: Basic Gray, Memento Black, Light & Dark Smoky Slate Blends, Light & Dark Old Olive Blends, Ivory Blend, Color Lifter, Light Calypso Coral Blend.

Tools: Stamparatus, bone folder, purchased envelope, sponge, dimensionals, Tombow adhesive, snail adhesive, regular and mini glue dots, sequins, Basic Gray ribbon, Layered Leaves embossing folder.

Punches/Dies: Animal Friends Thinlits dies, Stitched Shapes Framelits.

I used a full DSP panel from my Love It Chop It stash (5-1/4” x 4”) then basically copied my Rhino card from Christine’s Stamping Spot.  She has a great video on how she did it so no need for me to go into details.


I used a little Wink of Stella on the leaves.


I do love how much better the Blends seem to blend by coloring twice.


To create an open circle, tape the 2 largest Stitched Shape dies together.  Die cut one from Pool Party cardstock and another from Basic Gray cardstock.


Stamp phrase on the negative Pool Party circle.  Add to inside of card.  Stamp an envelope.


I’m still working on the Everyday Enchantment DSP that I have loved and now chopped.  I chopped it in 5-1/4” strips then cut the strips into 4” pieces.  Kept the leftover strips too.  I have stored them in a Full Wide Stamp case. Kylie Bertucci has given us permission to Love It Chop It.
